Nice hotel.some areas need attention. Staff are lovely,kind and polite.room good size.( normal double)kettle and tv.
Tired carpets.bathroom fittings black, shower door mouldy green( part at bottom of the door).Window dirty on the inside and out and didnt open,no air in the room, quite stuffy.TV picture kept dropping to digital squares, annoying when you're watching.Body fat on bath grouting. .lovely food! Outside tables hadn't been washed.Very dirty.Had to ask for ours to be wiped.Two others were just covered up with white table cloths.not good.Toilet brush is old bristle style,not hygienic enough.Should be flat silicone.No iron and board.

Lovely spacious hotel and outside area and garden. Our room was lovely with a balcony outside but abit chilly now it's Autumn. Breakfast was such a lovely choice, cooked breakfast, cereals, fruits & Yogurt etc. We had dinner in the restaurant a couple of times, food lovely and well presented. Good reasonable prices. All staff lovely and hard working and attentive. Lovely hotel central to get about. Do recommend mini bus tours of the Cotswolds. Great tour of the villages.
Only thing was not sure if the bedroom heater was on as could have done with room a little warmer but i could have asked, sure they would have sorted it out.

The hotel is on a major road,so easy to get to other places. Weather wasn't good but if it had been the gardens are nicely kept. Plus you can sit outside to eat/drink. There is a bar and restaurant. The receptionist who greeted us was very helpful and friendly. The hotel has a history of being a coaching inn. So the architecture is great. The room was kept clean.
The hotel is being refurbished which is great. Our room hadn't been done yet so some things needed replacing. We were a bit disappointed with the restaurant. We had to wait a while for the food which wasn't great. The staff were not as friendly as the receptionist.

The hotel was lovely, really clean, staff were really nice and really easy check in process. The food and drinks were expensive - but the food was lovely. And the bar staff were really nice and couldn’t do enough. The garden area is gorgeous, the grounds throughout are beautifully maintained. We had a superior double and it was a huge room looking over the garden and really quiet. There’s a garage across the road and other than that there didn’t appear to be much to walk to. We were only here for a night, but we would definitely book again if we were in the area

The Holt is a very nice comfortable hotel. We visited during a stormy weekend and it was lovely to return to a nice warm room. It's good value for money but nothing in walking distance and breakfast not included so we didn't eat in the hotel. Disappointing that on the Saturday night they couldn't facilitate dinner bookings for guests unless prebooked due to a large booking. It meant driving 15 minutes in bad weather for a restaurant. Otherwise this is a great hotel for visiting nearby Oxford.
No option to have dinner in the hotel due to a large booking. Difficult to get parking as car park very busy.

Great location for exploring Oxfordshire/The Cotswolds. Friendly staff. Updated room (Superior Double). Great breakfast selection.
Soundproofing isn’t great due to it being an older building (the doors and walls are quite thin - could hear other guests coming and going, talking in their room. The bathroom was very cold (even though ours was a recently renovated room)…no heat in it whatsoever (and our stay was in January with temperatures in to minus numbers overnight). The restaurant was also very chilly (for dinner - the breakfast room was better)

Staff were good, the room was clean and relatively spacious. Bathroom was lovely and the bed was comfy
Travel cot had seen better days No hand wash or hand lotion in the bathroom The hot food area at breakfast wasn't open and the hotel was not serving lunch or dinner. We were given 2 days notice of this so we're unable to find another hotel in time. We should have been offered a discount or something to compensate the inconvenience. This nearly ruined the trip to be honest. Breakfast buffet was also not available and it was order at the table which was fine just not what was advertised when I booked the hotel. Overall extremely poor communication and customer experience

Excellent service in the evenings in the restaurant/bar. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Nice warm room.
There was nothing that we didn't like, although a full sets of breakfast cutlery at the dining tables in the mornings would have been a slight improvement. Only knives, forks and napkins were set out for breakfast diners, and there was a distinct shortage of tea spoons next to where coffees and teas were available on a self-service basis.

The hotel and grounds were lovely, the food was very good, staff very friendly. Very clean and great location for exploring the Cotswolds.
The room itself was a bit of a let down, could have been designed better. The shower was rather small, and being a large lady found it claustrophobic with no room to manoeuvre, and the bathroom was big enough for a larger shower. Found the bed to be difficult to get in and out of due to the slopping roof, and the boxed in pipes, felt it would have been better turned 90⁰. Friends we were with had a far better room for the same price. Also TV remote was 't working properly and had to get out of bed to turn off when hubby had gone to sleep.

This was last minute booking and such a good deal i didnt expect much. How wrong was I. Its a beautiful hotel fantastic parking right outside. My room was lovely comfy bed good walk in shower. I ate evening meal in the hotel delicious same for breakfast which was part if the deal. All the staff were lovely and impeccable service. Loved the fact i could open my windows in room and not one of these oppressively hot hotels plus my room was quiet and peaceful
Nothing it exceeded my expectations
